The angel of death

I uploaded a couple of Lensbaby shots of this grave in Brompton Cemetery last year. Since then I have been back to a more conventional image of the same subject and reworked it in Nik Silver Efex Pro, and I like the results.
Thanks for looking,
Moira

[quote]Love the way this is popping out from the hedge,[/quote]

Interesting responses. I certainly see her as an aggressor, she just needs a spear in that raised hand.
I don't follow Doctor Who, but my daughter said this reminded her of the Weeping Angels. Who I gather are not nice angels.
Thanks everyone.

About to bring her arm down, thus summoning Death. She seems suitably evil and extremely concentrated, Moira. The idea of her lurking in the bushes (though goodness knows why someone so powerful would feel the need to do so) adds to the feeling of an aggressor.
